Kushner hung out with Saudi Prince until 4 am several nights

David Ignatius, Washingto Post - [Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman]  is emboldened by strong support from President Trump and his inner circle, who see him as a kindred disrupter of the status quo — at once a wealthy tycoon and a populist insurgent. It was probably no accident that last month, Jared Kushner, Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law, made a personal visit to Riyadh. The two princes are said to have stayed up until nearly 4 a.m. several nights, swapping stories and planning strategy.

hmmm, and it was last month that the Crown Prince took his entourage to Moscow to broker an arms deal with Russia (apparently the largest arms deal in US history, brokered with Trump in the spring wasn't quite enough). Now this month, many Saudi family members and "old guard" gov. officials are being arrested or having mysterious accidents...

I'm sure there is nothing to see here.

Until 4AM? Were they swapping lines as well as stories?
